I also have that problem at our company. One user routinely sends large images and forms via email, so I had to turn off the smtp proxy for her account. Anything above ~1MB would lock the server for a long time, then finally, the sending of the message would fail. Fortunately, she was using Thunderbird, and by adding the Thunderbayes extension, she could continue to train messages using Thunderbayes rather than the outgoing proxy. A bug was filed by someone some time ago, but the last time I looked, it was not assigned to anyone.
Your options are:
1. Disable the smtp proxy for the large message, then re-enable.
2. Train through the web interface.
3. Switch to Thunderbird/Thunderbayes.

Spambayes is still a great program. I had 281 messages this morning, and they all went to the right folder.

SpamBayes (version 1.0.4 now; 1.0.3 earlier) seems to work OK with my Outlook Express (ver.6) on my Windows XP Dell machine (1 GB memory). Small files (less than 1 MB) seem to transmit OK as well. Anytime I try to send a larger file(s) (especially greater than 1 MB) the program bogs down and "processes" the file(s) either very slowly or not at all. In the meantime, "sb_tray.exe" is consuming 98-99% of the CPU. File(s) greater than 2 MB essentially don't transmit -- i.e., the program just locks up. Any suggestions? -J.
